History

Revision 1 (R1) & Revision 2 (R2) of the helmet were fairly short lived and were simply a construction helmet modified with a puck, a fin and some stickers. The brow of the helmet said "PUCK ME" in reflective letters. Sharks logos adorned all sides. While R1 had a stiff, molded plastic shark fin, this was soon realized to be a "mistake" and it was replaced with a more pliable fabric shark fin (hence the R2 designation). The R2 version finally met its demise when Johnathon Cheechoo scored a hatrack and Susi rand down to throw it on the ice. Not a peep since...

Details

The Sharks Helmet R3 version (seen above) also includes a host of yellow blinky LEDs arranged to create a mobile piece of chaos. A battery pack is held internally for providing power (over a year of average home game use).

Controls: On the back is a full on / full off switch. On the left is a pushbutton for 30 seconds of goal celebration! A microcontroller (Atmel ATTiny similar to the Wedding Board Cribbage Peg) controls the time delay and pushbutton circuitry.

Sorry I don't have any more photos, but this is one of the many projects I simply have not documented all that well.
